Jaeger 1.5-6×42 optical rifle scope

The Jaeger 1.5-6×42 is a so-called “golden mean”, a versatile riflescope suitable for both driven hunting and stalking. The 1.5× magnification still works quite well for driven hunts, while the 6× magnification allows precise shots at medium distances. The larger 42 mm objective lens gathers noticeably more light than a 24 mm lens, which means you can hunt successfully with it even in light dusk or early in the morning.

Yukon Jaeger sights have a reinforced waterproof (IPX7) body and precisely coated optics that provide a bright and clear image across the entire field of view.

The sight has a reticle with an illuminated centre, convenient adjustment turrets, a rubber magnification ring with a good grip, and fast focusing. Thanks to these features, the Jaeger sight offers exceptionally good performance and reliability in its price range.

IPX7 weather and waterproof rating

The Jaeger sight can be used in any moisture conditions, for example in heavy rain or a snowstorm (the device has an IPX7 rating in accordance with the IEC 60529 standard).

Nitrogen-filled housing

The Jaeger sight can be used in any moisture conditions, for example in heavy rain or a snowstorm (the device has an IPX7 rating in accordance with the IEC 60529 standard).

The nitrogen fill protects the optics and the interior of the body from fogging caused by temperature fluctuations. When moving from the cold into a warm room, condensation does not form on the lenses or internal parts, because the moisture-free nitrogen keeps the glass clean from the inside.

Because there is no moisture or oxygen inside the body, mould and fungus are also prevented from forming on the inner surfaces of the lenses.

Robust body

Jaeger riflescopes are designed to work together with the night vision and clip-on thermal attachments.

High shock resistance

The sight has very good shock and vibration resistance. All Jaeger models can be used on large-calibre rifles, shotguns and air rifles.

Wider field of view

The 1,5x magnification of this scope is still quite well suited to driven hunts, while magnification of up to 6x allows accurate shots at medium ranges.

Resettable adjustment turrets

The design of the elevation and windage adjustment turrets allows them to be easily set to the zero position with a single click after the sight has been zeroed.

Aiming point / reticle

The reticle (T01i) of Jaeger sights is located on the second focal plane — this means that the aiming point remains thin at every magnification and does not obscure the target. The centre of the reticle is illuminated. The adjustment wheel has intermediate off positions, which allow the illumination to be switched off quickly and later returned to the same brightness level. Illumination can be adjusted over a wide range, and the sight also has a separate operating mode for front-mounted night vision and thermal devices.
